There's another subplot in all of this, which I had forgotten about until ESPN did a story on it; the MVP race between Manny and Shef. Especially during this last month, both of these guys have been out of control. I think whoever wins the pennant gets the MVP (unless Manny's numbers completely blow away Gary's).
Both won last night...finally a good all-around performance by the Yanks, and finally two good starting efforts in a row.
Heard a rumor yesterday that during the Varitek/A-Rod confrontation, the comment that set A-Rod off was when Varitek told him "What, you think we'd put a .260 hitter on base?"
